Hammerlocke Gym
Enter the gym and prepare your team, because this is the Dragon-type gym, although it's not exclusively Dragon Pokemon. As you can see from the list of trainers below, half the Pokemon you come up against aren't Dragon-type, so plan your party accordingly.
There's no special mission to complete here, each battle is simply a duo battle instead of a solo one. So you'll have two Pokemon in play at any one time; be wary of this when relying on moves like Earthquake.

Gym Leader Raihan
While Raihan is meant to be a Dragon-type master, as you can see from the three previous battles, that isn't as strict as other gyms. Gigalith is just Rock-type, while Sandaconda is only Ground-type. As such, you'd do well with a Water and/or Grass-type to support some Dragon-types in your party. When Raihan uses Duraludon, make sure you're reviving constantly because it deals some serious damage when Gigantamaxed.
Pokemon | Level | Type |
---|---|---|
Gigalith | 46 | Rock |
Flygon | 47 | Ground/Dragon |
Sandaconda | 46 | Ground |
Duraludon | 48 | Steel/Dragon |
After you defeat Raihan, head to the Hammerlocke train station and take the train up to Wyndon.
